Just legalize it, tax it, and all of our troubles will vanish....< sarc/off>

The hair coloring absorbed through her scalp and has affected her brain. That would have been a defense that might have worked.

Youth is truly wasted on the young ....

[Wombat Ark]

Maybe she had just watched “Raising Arizona” and hallucinated that she was starring in it.

[Buckeye McFrog]

At least it wasn’t a dog in a cage. Then we’d have to stone her to death.

[Red Badger]

And I promise to vote for Democrats forever........................

[Smokin' Joe]

Well, the kid will either love motorcycles and open cockpits, or hate them.

We all know this story can’t be true. Libertarians have told us that drug use is a victimless crime. /sarc/

[Farmer Dean]

The judge should have ordered a tubal ligation as part of her sentence.

“Maricopa County Superior Judge Cynthia Bailey”

Sheriff Joe will not be amused.

Raising Arizona redux, only real life.....

legalizing another drug is not going to end well...its not going to make us better people, or reduce crime, or stress, nor make much of an impact in our finacial deficits...

infact, I predict we will be worse people, crime will increase, and our deficits will continue to escalate as we draw up new programs to treat weed addled trash...

The article doesn’t say, but I don’t suppose authorities took the baby? No, I suppose not. That would be too sane.

Somewhere there is a man who is forever linked to this woman because he chose to sire a child with her

[Free America52]

That must have been some pretty good herb to not know you baby is on top of the car.

[MNDude]

here’s a video of her biking:

he chose to sire a child with her —

Well, maybe he was on pot at the time, and might have a defense of not really being able to choose.

[slumber1]

I’d cut her some slack. Who among us hasn’t driven off with at one time or another with something on the roof...a cup of coffee, a briefcase, a baby...
